A Comparative Study of Cr(VI) Sorption by <i>Aureobasidium pullulans</i> AKW Biomass and Its Extracellular Melanin: Complementary Modeling with Equilibrium Isotherms, Kinetic Studies, and Decision Tree Modeling
Melanin as a natural polymer is found in all living organisms, and plays an important role in protecting the body from harmful UV rays from the sun. The efficiency of fungal biomass (<i>Aureobasidium pullulans</i>) and its extracellular melanin as Cr(VI) biosorbents was comparatively con...
